AEW World Champion MJF isn’t staying silent about the disturbing revelations emerging from the newly unsealed Jeffrey Epstein documents—and he’s making his position crystal clear.
Appearing on Mostly Sports with Mark Titus and Brandon Walker on February 5, 2026, MJF was asked about the flood of Epstein-related files recently released by the Department of Justice. The outspoken star didn’t hold back when condemning both the content of the documents and the public response surrounding them.
“The Epstein files—the situation is disgusting, and it’s really wrong that people are trying to sweep it under the rug.”
The Salt of the Earth added that the issue transcends politics and should be treated with universal outrage, as he believes pedophilia is absolutely messed up.
“I don’t care what side of the aisle you sit on politically, pedophilia is not okay. I don’t know how you guys feel about it, but pedophilia is f***** up.”
MJF’s comments come amid growing media scrutiny over the millions of pages of Epstein-related files recently made public. Among the more controversial mentions was the late WWE superstar Ashley Massaro, who tragically died by suicide in 2019. Her name appeared in an anonymous, unverified complaint submitted to then–Acting U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss in connection with Ghislaine Maxwell.
The passage in question, attributed to an unnamed accuser, alleged Massaro may have worked for Maxwell during her youth and made disturbing claims involving Epstein’s private island. It is crucial to note that no evidence has been presented publicly confirming any such connection, and the allegations remain unverified and unproven.
While many celebrities and public figures have stayed quiet about the revelations, MJF’s reaction stands out in a wrestling world often hesitant to engage with controversial headlines outside the ring.
With public attention back on Epstein’s network and its alleged ties to individuals across entertainment, politics, and business, the wrestling community—through voices like MJF’s—is beginning to weigh in.
